I like but... I can buy an actual fossilised, one-of-a-kind trilobite that is millions of years old for a fraction of the cost of that coin. And I know which I would prefer.
By the way, CIT Ammonite is a great coin selling today at top prices. Is that a series? Any news about next one? Alex.
The CIT Evolution is a series, yes. If it follows the course of last years ammonite, the next one should be up for pre-order in August. The CIT ammonite is indeed a beauty. Don't be surprised if CIT's choice for their second coin was planned to be a trilobite. I'm a bit surprised at the Polish mint coming out with this trilobite. They are well known for innovative stuff themselves, they didn't need to go down the copycat road.
